The Internet of Car – How Smart Cities will change the way we transport ourselvesVolker Politz

The Internet of Car – How Smart Cities will change the way we transport ourselves

Time: 11:00-11:30 | Speaker: Volker Politz

Smart Cities offer a range of promises for a brighter future, none more so than a fully integrated multimodel transportation system that addresses several of the major challenges facing us. One is congestion, two is pollution, three is travel time and efficiency and four is the increase in urban populations. To address such a wide range of issues there will be a raft of technologies both wired and wireless brought to bear along with a range of services that need securing if they are not to be open to hacking. In this presentation we will be looking at architectures that enable the multi-trillion dollar services business, what is required to enable semi and fully autonomous driving, we look at the impact of new wireless technologies as well as exploring some of the drivers and inhibitors of such a potential market.

Key Takeaways

Understand the key motivators for changing to Smart Cities

Explore the issues that face the move to autonomous driving

What infrastructure needs to be put in place and its implications

What government support and legislation needs to be put in place

Which technologies will underpin this in the medium and long term

AR – Is it the next smartphone, T.V, car or something else entirely?

Time: 11:30-12:00 | Speaker: Chris Longstaff

AR is forecast to become a huge revenue stream for technology companies. But what is the killer app, where do we go beyond Pokemon Go (If indeed we really consider that to be AR!), and do we have the technology today to achieve that? AR encompasses several aspects of technology, from vision processing through to the Graphical overlay of information. This presentation looks at some components of technology behind AR, and how the solutions today will need to evolve to meet the expectations and requirements in 2025.

Key Takeaways

Key requirements for AR SoCs today

Power VR GPU, ISP, GPU Compute, Ray tracing solutions for AR

How AR might evolve over the coming years

Managing and provisioning trust from the cloud to the IoT nodeMajid Bemanian

Managing and provisioning trust from the cloud to the IoT node

Time: 13:00-13:30 | Speaker: Majid Bermanian

In a highly connected world it is vital that a chain of trust can be established from the silicon through to the service provision in order that mutual trust can be achieved. Exploring how multiple cryptographic touch points along the trust chain can be established, monitored and managed.

Key Takeaways

A continuum of trust requires multiple cryptographic touchpoints

Device & link integrity between touchpoints is a must to protect the digital-exchange against subversive attacks

Preventing massing DDoS IoT attacks

13:30-14:00

Heterogeneous ComputeSteve Evans

Heterogeneous Compute

Time: 13:30-14:00 | Speaker: Steve Evans

Yesterday’s cookie cutter CPU designs no longer fit the demands of modern SoCs. Diverse requirements placed on the numerous CPUs found across tomorrow’s SoCs will require heterogeneous capabilities. Join us in exploring real-world examples highlighting how heterogeneous processors deliver a brighter future for SoCs design by delivering the right capabilities at the right time-saving cost and power. Application example range from IoT to in-car entertainment.

Where Imagination sees those capabilities growing in importance and why

A look at how the I6500 meets those challenges

14:00-14:30

The next wave of embedded Wi-Fi for IoTNarayanan Raman

The next wave of embedded Wi-Fi for IoT

Time: 14:00-14:30 | Speaker: Narayanan Raman

The Internet of Things (IoT) market is expected to have millions of connected devices in diverse applications such as healthcare, security, energy, retail, transport, agriculture, and wearables etc. The need for connected devices is driving the need for low power, low cost and secure connectivity solutions. In order to meet these objectives, it is becoming more and more apparent that connected System on Chips (SoC’s), that integrate sensors, connectivity (Wi-Fi, BT) and a processor are needed.

Key Takeaways

Benefits of connectivity integration

Wireless Technologies for connected SoC’s

Imagination’s Connectivity Portfolio

What goes up must come down? The rise and re-size of the GPU in SoCsKristof Beets

What goes up must come down? The rise and re-size of the GPU in SoCs

Time: 14:50-15:20 | Speaker: Kristof Beets

This talk looks at several key market areas, requiring SoCs with GPUs such as mobile, automotive, STB, and discusses the GPU requirements. We look at needs and priorities in terms of power, performance, area and feature set. We look forward to considering what the requirements would be for the “Future 2025” products.

IoT, AI and 5G : The perfect blend for next generation smart “things”

Time: 15:20-15:50 | Speaker: Saraj Mudigonda

Finally, a common man can easily talk to a machine and expect intelligent human-like answers. This is no more a George Lucas’s fantasy – C-3PO/R2-D2 interactive droids. Siri/Amazon Echo/Google Home/Cortana and other such voice-controlled “things” are now part and parcel of everyday lifestyle that bring added convenience and increased productivity. For ubiquitous experience whether you are at home, in the car or at work, the low latency, high bandwidth 5G is an essential ingredient. Finally, by combining these 3 technologies – IoT, AI and 5G, the transformed smart ”things” can enable an enhanced experience for a wide range of use cases from SmartHomes to Connected/Autonomous Cars to SmartCities.

Key Takeaways

Learn the usage and adoption of these exciting technologies that are enabling billions of things/bots today and in future

Discover the user experience and added convenience when all of these technologies are blended together

Understand how Imagination can help you transform your next generation product to an intelligent, enduring and prevalent smart “thing”
